Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions useful for inhibiting an immune response
and for inhibiting rejection of transplanted tissues. This inhibition comprises preventing an
endogenous molecule on a cell selected from the group consisting of gp39 and CD40 antigens from
binding its endogenous ligand and preventing an endogenous molecule on a cell selected from the
group consisting of CTLA4, CD28, and B7 antigens from binding its endogenous ligand. The
prevention of such molecules from binding their ligand thereby blocks two independent signal
pathways and inhibits the immune response resulting in transplanted tissue rejection.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for utilizing SCH resources more efficiently for
supplemental channels (SCH) by minimizing gaps between data bursts due to overhead
delays. Such gaps are minimized using a supplemental channel sharing algorithm to
prospectively assign SCH resources supporting existing SCHs and to schedule future
issuance of data notify requests DNRs such that currently unavailable SCH resources may be prospectively
assigned based on states of the SCH resources, wherein an existing SCH is a SCH over
which a data burst is currently being transmitted. 
For this purpose a data burst is followed by a preferred used assignment
window (PUA), indicating the current user, a waiting user assignment
window (WUA) and an expired reassignment window (ERA).

IPC: G06T5/50
Filed: 2001-11-19
Abstract: A method of processing digital source images,
each represented by pixel matrices, to obtain from two
or more source images, representing one and the same
real scene and acquired by utilizing different
exposure levels, a final digital image capable of
reproducing the real scene with an exposure latitude
greater than that of each of the source images. 
     The method, which can be advantageously used
in digital still cameras, produces the final image by
combining the source images with the help of a
weighted mean constructed pixel by pixel. Thanks to a
special filtering to which the weighting coefficients
are subjected before the weighted mean operation, the
method obtains a final image in which the source
images are harmoniously combined with each other. 
     A variant of the method can also be applied
directly to digital images in CFA (Colour Filter
Array) format.

Inventor: VAUX DAVID JOHN
IPC: G01N13/04
Filed: 2001-01-02
Abstract: A method of measuring the surface configuration of a liquid surface, e.g. to measure surface tension. Liquid samples are confined in wells, e.g. of a multi-well microtitle plate, and a light beam is passed through the sample offset from the centre of the well. The intensity of the reflected or transmitted light beam is dependent upon the angle of incidence with the liquid surface, which varies with changes in surface tension of the liquid. Thus measurement of the reflected or transmitted intensity can be used as a measurement of the surface tension The method can also be used to measure viscosity by agitating the sample and measuring the rate of change of curvature of the sample surface during or after agitation. The method is also applicable to measuring surfaces other than liquids, e.g. of a membrane being deformed under pressure where, again the angle of incidence of a light beam on the membrane varies with deformation of the membrane.

Abstract: Device ( 1 ) for assaying a particulate analyte, comprising (a) a receptacle ( 2 ) for receiving a suspension ( 5 ) of particulate analyte, and containing label ( 3 ) for the particulate analyte, and (b) a porous detection material ( 4 ) that is permeable to label ( 3 ) but is impermeable to particulate analyte, the detection material ( 4 ) being arranged within receptacle ( 2 ) such that introduction of suspension ( 5 ) of particulate analyte into receptacle ( 2 ) forms liquid communication between label ( 3 ) and detection material ( 4 ). After liquid sample ( 5 ) is introduced into the receptacle ( 2 ), capillary flow through the porous detection material ( 4 ) begins. Particulate analyte cannot flow through the detection material ( 4 ) and is captured at its surface. Addition of liquid sample ( 5 ) also releases the label ( 3 ) within the receptacle ( 2 ), which is then free to flow through the detection material ( 4 ). Label ( 3 ) encounters the captured analyte and gives a signal ( 7 ). Label is prevented from running ahead of the analyte, resulting in high sensitivity.
